“From Insight To Impact”
This isn’t just a strap line, it is the foundation stone for those operating in elite level sport. Sports Science continues to develop at speed. Our understanding of how we realise potential is constantly evolving. During football’s international break some of those operating at the highest level shared their methods, insights and real world experiences.
In an event staged by Catapult at Stamford Bridge – the home of Chelsea Football Club – some of the most forward thinking minds in the world of Sports Science came together. We heard from those operating in the The Premier League, European football, Women’s football and in the USA at the University of Michigan. How they combine technology with practical application. How they use data and more importantly, analyse and interpret it to enable athletes to reach peak performance.
What we heard was how the impact of data analytics varies in different sporting spheres. Highlighted clearly by Ruth Buscombe where, in the world of Formula 1, milliseconds in time and millimetres on the track can be the difference between first and last.
This was a superb, educational event, attended by guests operating in various areas of professional sport. It gave those present, an opportunity to exchange ideas, network and establish new contacts and it was my privilege to host it. Thanks to Nika Ouellette for her organisation behind the scenes – it was a pleasure to to work with you.
